They say 13 isn't lucky enough, so I have to write another post to keep things good and nice on my blog :). The thing is, when you have to write, you suddenly run out of things to say.
For those of you who've been curious about my recent status messages on GTalk ...

I recently found a new Marathi interpretation for my name...as the Amreekans choose to pronounce it...Day-before-yesterday-tea. So, in the event that I found a tea company someday, I have a ready made name for it:). Tata tea, here I come...

(You probably (justifiably) think that was one of my worst jokes ever....but well, remember, I'm not saying sorry this week:D )
I received an incomplete grade for my project today, and have two more months I guess to prove myself.
The experience was an eye-opener of sorts. I realized that I've turned into this increasingly negative person, who keeps belittling and insulting herself and her work. I spent an hour in a project meeting today without smiling once, or saying one happy thing about my work. It wasn't like there was nothing good to say about it. I don't know why I was so negative. A melancholy kid, probably diminishing even the prof's enthusiasm.
Resolution for this week, remind me if I forget, I'm going to smile more often. And I'm going to be nicer to myself. And I'll treat my work with the respect it deserves :)
